23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print of "Steelyard, 1811" by George Shepherd takes us back in time to the bustling trading center of London. The image showcases the steel foundry and pulley system that was a vital part of this historic location. Located on Upper Thames Street, Steelyard was not only a hub for merchants but also served as an important connection point with ports in Germany through the Hanseatic League. In this detailed artwork, we can see the intricate scales and winches used for weighing goods before they were transported along the River Thames. The painting beautifully captures the industrial atmosphere of Steelyard, with its towering buildings and busy workers going about their daily tasks. It is interesting to note that Cannon Street Station would later be built on these premises in 1865, further transforming this area into a transportation hub. This print allows us to appreciate both the historical significance and architectural beauty of Steelyard. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images, we are reminded of London's rich trading history and how places like Steelyard played a crucial role in shaping it. It serves as a visual reminder of our past and invites us to explore further into the fascinating world of commerce during that era.
